I am a first-year student at Yale Law School and am seeking a position in the Attorney General’s Office
for Summer 20XX. My family resides in Arlington, and I plan to return to the area following my law school
graduation. If funding is not available for summer interns in your office, Yale is able to fund my employment.
My background and interests are well-suited to the work conducted by your office generally, and the Civil
Law Division in particular. As an undergraduate, I learned about the trial process through my work as a counselor
and student judge for the University Judiciary Committee. I enjoyed interviewing and preparing witnesses for
hearings, analyzing the facts of cases, and drafting opinions.
I will be in Virginia from December 23 to January 2 and would welcome the opportunity to speak to you
about a position as a summer intern in the Office of the Attorney General. I will call your office later this month
to see if an interview might be arranged during that time. Thank you for your consideration.

I am a first-year student at Yale Law School seeking a position with Curtis, Mallet-Prevost for Summer 20XX. I
am a native New Yorker and am focusing my summer job search in New York City.
I am interested in your firm because of its focus in international law generally and more particularly because of
your firm’s presence in France and numerous French clients. Having lived and studied in Paris for one year during
college, and having served as a teaching assistant for French courses, I am fluent in the language and
knowledgeable about French culture. My degree in International Relations has provided me with an understanding
of many of the complex issues facing businesses with the increase in globalization. I plan to further my
understanding of these issues as a member of the Yale Journal of International Law.
I am confident that my background and experience will enable me to make a positive contribution to your clients.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

I am a first-year student at Yale Law School seeking a summer internship working on the legal issues surrounding
farming. I worked for your former classmate, Tara Lewis, at the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at
Cornell University. She recommended that I contact you knowing that your organization deals with the issues that
most interest me. Your work on behalf of minority farmers fighting discrimination in agricultural policies is of
particular interest, though I would gladly work in any of your focus areas.
I have had a long-standing interest in agriculture, which is why I pursued an undergraduate degree in plant
breeding. Although I find my scientific background provides a terrific framework for understanding the farmers’
concerns, since my undergraduate days my interests have turned more to include the social, legal, and policy
issues surrounding the farming industry. I have also sought information about international agricultural techniques
and policies as a student in Australia.
I look forward to the opportunity to speak with you further and would be delighted at the chance to interview with
someone in your office. I will contact you at the beginning of January to see whether an interview might be

For your information, Yale would fund my work at your office if you do not have funding for summer interns.

I have many interests in the law, and am seeking a firm that will enable me to explore numerous practice areas

hope to have the opportunity to work in that practice area and others this summer.
My varied background has provided me with many skills that your firm will find useful. At the University of
Texas I double majored in math and journalism, areas requiring both analytical and writing proficiency. During
the summer after my first year of law school I researched legislation and conducted statistical analysis for
Governor Walter’s office and wrote numerous legal memoranda relating to habeas corpus issues for the Texas

I am a second-year student at Yale Law School seeking employment for the summer. If funding is not available
for summer interns, Yale could fund my summer employment. I am very interested in the work of the Food
Research and Action Center in the areas of health law and nutrition in maternal and child health, and would
greatly value the opportunity to work with and learn from attorneys practicing in these areas.
As you can see from my enclosed resume, I have practical work experience in these fields. My work as an
assistant ombudsperson at a major hospital helped me to understand the importance of nutrition for health and the
need for advocacy on behalf of those who cannot effectively advocate for themselves. My experience with the
National Health Law program exposed me to the legislative and policy side of health law and the value of legal
training in public service. After my first year of law school I was able to combine my nursing degree and health
care experience with my new legal research and writing skills at the Center for Reproductive Law and Policy.
This experience has strengthened my interest in grassroots organizing and advocacy of nutrition issues for low-
income Americans.
I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you or someone in your office about a position as a summer intern
at the Center. I will call your office in early February to see whether it might be possible to arrange an interview
and look forward to speaking with you then.

I am a second-year student at Yale Law School and hope you will consider me for a summer internship in the

summer, I am interested in returning there to practice. A chance to gain experience as an intern in your office
would provide an invaluable introduction to the state’s legal system and community.
I am particularly interested in civil rights law and have had an opportunity to pursue this interest by
representing state and federal prisoners in Connecticut through the Prison Legal Services clinic here at
Yale since January 20XX. Additionally, as an intern in the Advocacy for Parents and Children clinic this
past summer, intensive client contact allowed me to improve my client counseling and interviewing skills
enormously, and refine my skills both at out-of-court negotiation and in-court representation. Furthermore, I
anticipate that my French language skills may prove useful given the significant French-speaking population in
Maine.
I have enclosed a resume and look forward to the opportunity to speak with you further. I am always

that the firm is involved with, and the mixture of litigation and policy work done by the attorneys. I

I have a long-standing commitment to environmental issues. As a joint degree student with Yale’s Law
School and School of Forestry & Environmental Studies, I am pursuing the scientific knowledge, policy
skills, and legal training necessary to be an effective environmental advocate. This past summer, I
sharpened my legal research and writing abilities working on Clean Air Act litigation for Environmental
Defense in Boulder, Colorado, and am continuing to work for the organization part time during the
school year. Through course work on Land Use, Water Law, Administrative Law, and U.S.
Environmental Law and Policy, which I took at Yale Law School as an undergraduate, I have sought to
develop a broad understanding of the laws and regulations affecting the environment, and the context in
which these laws are enacted and enforced.

The attached writing sample is an excerpt from a brief submitted for the Morris Tyler Moot Court of
Appeals competition. The case involved a challenge to the Connecticut sex offender registration statute.1 The
competition problem differed somewhat from the actual case then pending before the United States Supreme
Court, and competitors were not permitted to rely on materials submitted to the Court. The questions presented
for competition were:
1. Does Connecticut’s sex offender registration law implicate an offender’s liberty interest by listing
offenders in an undifferentiated registry and violate an offender’s due process rights by failing to afford
an offender a hearing on his current dangerousness before publishing true and accurate information about
him and his conviction history?
2. Does Connecticut’s sex offender registration law, on its face or as implemented, impose punishment for
purposes of the Ex Post Facto Clause of the United States Constitution?
I represented the petitioner, the Connecticut Department of Public Safety. I chose the section of brief
addressing the Ex Post Facto Clause as my writing sample.

The first paragraph would also be the appropriate place to summarize any facts in the case necessary to understand the argument, instead
of including a lengthy statement of facts.
